to ask who the heck still has fabric toilet covers??

[Salmotrutta]

except my MIL ......???
She still has a woolly thing that goes over the lid.

I gave that up about 25 years ago (as did my Mum) in the iterests of hygiene.

So who the heck still does that?

I'm genuinely interested ......

I only ask because I visited her loo tonight ... and I've wondered about it before ... but I am now avid to know why???

not sure why this would be a question of being reasonable or not.

Surely you could just ask you MIL (mother in law ?)

Perhaps only she uses it? Or maybe she washes it daily?

I use a milk jub with a little crochet cover on it...I'm weird too.

nans everywhere op

PatWithABra - I'm asking who the heck has fabric toilet covers because of all the people I know only she has them - therefore to gain a statistically significant sample number I must put the question to a wider audience. Lighten up. It's just for my amusement.
And sharbie - I'm with you on the "Nans" - only they have doilies and antimaccasers (sp?) and ..... stuff ....

Ooooh. Does your MIL also have that toilet bowl hugging mat also?

Loverly, as long as you don't have boys like mine, I'm sure.

I think it relates to having a place for everything, and everything in its place, and all that.

My MIL would put lace filigree (sp?) on me too if I stayed in one place!

I make it my personal decision not to comment in real life on people's housekeeping arrangements, it definately makes for better relationships!

But urrggghhhh.

YY to the toilet bowl mat human - horrible because man pee drips on it ... LOL.
So why would you have one????

And I also don't comment ..... but laugh my ass off in private!!

My maiden aunt has the toilet bowl hugger!

I ask my boy pee sprayers to 'involve' me whenever they need to go there!

I grew up in a "male" house and the toilet mat got binned regularly!
Maiden Aunts just didn't "get it" did they?
I had a Maiden Aunt - she was great, but soooo naive. I was there when she died .... , very intelligent lady, but had no clue about "life" IYKWIM?

Erm, "toilet bowl hugging" mats are very useful when you have boys/men and carpet in the bathroom. [rented house emoticon]

Mats can be washed, y'know.

I washed and washed and washed and washed those toilet huggers. There is no way you can fully remove the enduring aroma of the spray of pee. Vinegar does help (I mean help, not cure) the situation.
No need for them. Maybe a nice picture, if needs be for the beautification of the maiden aunt bathroom, but bin the toilet hugger!

what about toilet seat huggers?
Found them in Muji (japan)! thought would be good for little DD as her bathroom freezing.
Oh the mistake! binned after one day

Good grief! Toilet seat huggers! Ick.

When DH and I first moved in together in 1991, I had to have the complete set, the lid hugger, the back of the toilet hugger, the toilet matt and matching bath matt. Awful now when I think back to it. Its just mingy. I do see the point of having a toilet matt if you have carpet though. I don't know anyone that has them now. I just have a bath matt now.

I must confess , and say that i have a toilet mat hugger, but my DH's 'aim' is perfect. I do, however wash it weekly!
I don't have a toilet seat hugger though - although used to many, many years ago!!!! lol!

missjulie - consider this an intervention. Remove the mat and throw it away. DH will learn to deal with that cold feeling beneath his feet, called the floor! Nice and cold, and clean.

Someone on MN recently posted something saying bathroom floors are covered in "poo mist". [insert vomiting emoticon] It's not just pee pee down there. Throw it away.

Lol!

Poo mist! runs off to clean bathroom floor
